Swift global payments innovation (gpi)

In today’s digital world, when you make a cross-border payment you expect the service to be delivered at the touch of a button. Yet, in reality, cross-border payments can take days, can’t be tracked, there’s a lack of transparency on fees and remittance data can get altered in the process.

Today, Swift GPI is transforming the cross-border payment experience entirely, by:

• Enabling you to credit your end beneficiary in minutes or even seconds;
• Allowing you to track your payment from end-to-end, like a parcel;
• Offering you transparency on exactly what fees you will be charged;
• Ensuring that the remittance data remains unaltered when your payment arrives.

Swift GPI has already been adopted by more than 150 banks around the world and more than 100 billion USD in Swift GPI messages are being sent every day – enabling payments to be credited to end beneficiaries within minutes or seconds. Swift GPI payments now represent nearly 10% of Swift’s cross-border payments traffic, sent daily across 220 international payment corridors.

Swift GPI is set to be the standard for all cross-border payments by the end of 2020.
